The new recruits were officially welcomed to the company at a recent away day which celebrated the firm’s 90-year anniversary, held at A Day in the Country, Aynho. There were many activities throughout the day and a pop-up performance from Opera Anywhere where four performers spent the day ‘acting’ so they could surprise everyone with their singing during the celebration BBQ.
